This is what Iv been told: its an adjuvant chemotherapy drug and a type of hormone therapy as it attaches to oestrogen and is used instead of ongoing IV chemotherapy. There is no option with reconstruction, when I had the surgery before I had to have 2 anethetists (I know spelt wrong again) because I'm high risk. I just didn'[t expect the answer I got. They're worried bercause of my diabeties & healing, I have vascular disease & am on warfarin so they're worried about clotting if I go off warfarin & blood flow with the vascular disease & with other health issues they said it was just too dangerous & didnt want to kill me. As for other methods such as fat transfer, the breast surgeon thinks that the severe damage to my boob was caused by the radiation therapy & that surgerly wouldnt work.
